    AT A time when many startups are reining in hiring and preserving capital, local fintech platform M-Daq is instead gearing up for growth.

    The company is actively hiring, and a key avenue of growth will be through further mergers and acquisitions (M&A), group chief executive Richard Koh told The Business Times.

    This comes after M-Daq’s acquisition of payments provider Wallex, which was completed in 2022.
